Hi saltywalt.
Often the best general guide is cosmetics, ie have the amp front panels pics only, (big pictures only for each control), or pics and text (smaller pics and written control functions.

So your head looks to be 1974. Don't know about the combo. Perhaps it is a '90s reissue? You can tell by checking here:
'702 and '90s faceplates
15 ohms for the cab will be right enough. Many older cabs (and speakers) were rated at 15 ohms. Treat as 16 ohms.
Sorry, don't know about the cab dates. Best bet would be to check codes on the speakers frames / cones themselves. If original they'll at least give you a clue.

Only dimly aware of existence, a dimly existing awareness...
You get a wonderful view from the point of no return.
